Hi Everyone,
1st time poster here.....My 9 y.o. Sunbeam Cafe series coffee machine has finally given up the ghost over the weekend & I'm keen to replace it, so keen in fact that I've actually bought a EM7000 from Hardly Normals today for $689 (I think this is pretty good price?).
However, I did like the look of the Breville BES870 "Barista Express" so I just wanted to know, once & for all whether I did the right thing?
I'm concious that there is two major differences between the two in that the E7000 has a twin boiler so I can froth & brew at the same time & the Breville has an inbuilt conical burr grinder.......but everything else, i.e. pressure, Electronic PID temperature control, true low pressure pre-infusion, & dedicated hot water outlet, water filtration system etc... seems to match up? I was offered a price of $649 for the Breville....
Have I bought the best machine for the money; I'm only making 1-2 cups of latte each day & I already have a burr grinder however space in the kitchen is tight???
Cheers
Matthew
